We caught up with real Lumber Liquidators' customers who volunteered to discuss their floor shopping, buying and installation experiences. In no way did these customers receive compensation for their kind words. (They're speaking straight from the heart.)

Very pleased with this flooring choice. Hard wood that will hold up to heavy traffic, kids, pets, etc. Love the color variations and wood grain. Matches up well against the existing Brazilian Mesquite in an adjacent room. Only negative is that in my opinion, there are more pieces with a manufacturer defect than what is expected. Quality control should catch pieces that are not square, cut edges, etc. Most pieces can be used if cut to smaller size, in a closet, etc. so not as much waste in the end. But you do need to check each piece before you install it to avoid taking pieces out later.

Wood products can be dramatic in appearance, especially the exotics. Only factory made products such as tile, vinyl, and wallpaper will have uniformity of color. Keep in mind that wood and corks are natural product and no two installed floors will be identical. Variations in appearance are completely normal and are a desired characteristic. As your floor ages, color or shading called "patina" can occur. This process can be rapid the first 3 months, less in 6 months, then finishing off in about I year. Moving the furniture and rugs around helps to even out areas that were not exposed to light. Try to avoid large area rugs for the first 3 months.All wood species can change color over time due to oxidation or when exposed to light. In some species, the change can be more dramatic and may darken in color over time, while others tend to lighten. Currently there is no known value set for Patina or color change of a species so contractors and or customers should be aware of this normal condition. The patina process is unrelated to the urethane finishes. When installing wood floors, select boards from several boxes. Working from one box at a time can create poor color grouping or placement of any flooring. Any one board you feel is unacceptable to install can simply be discarded, replaced with the 5-10% overage you should have on hand. Thank you for your inquiry
